Twilight, Bronze statue in Viru Square, Estonia.
Twilight is a bronze sculpture located in Viru Square at the center of Tallinn, standing above an important transportation junction. The figure marks a crossing point of several main streets in the heart of the city.
The sculpture was created in 2004 by Mare Mikoff during a major transformation period for the city. The artwork emerged during a time of intensive urban development that fundamentally changed the former open square area.
The sculpture carries the Estonian name Hämarik, showing how contemporary art finds its place in a modern shopping district. It connects local meaning with the everyday use of the space by residents and visitors.
The monument sits directly next to the Viru Centre shopping complex and serves as a well-known landmark for visitors. The location is easy to reach on foot and works well as a meeting point in the city center.
Five tram lines meet at the roundabout where the sculpture stands, making it a crossing point of the public transport system. This traffic situation shapes the rhythm of the square and the visitor experience daily.
